Soulles Sky

Chapter 9

•Battle of Thunder/Lightning Guardian•

Ieyuji woke up earlier than he usually does during the next day, but he didn't leave his bed, he just laid there, thinking about the coming battle. Reborn went to his room. He doesn't care if he didn't knock the door and went over to the boy.

"That's rare for you to wake up early Baka Yuji." Reborn had pointed out with his usual face so it was hard to find out if Reborn actually smiled. Ieyuji turned at Reborn for a second then turned up once again and spoke, "Hey Reborn, what can you say about the fight?"

Reborn looked carefully on his student and answered him, "From the beginning Baka Yuji, both Ken and Lussuria are already meant to lose." Ieyuji's eyes widen and sat up to look at the Arcobaleno. "What do you mean?"

"You have seen Ryohei's flame? The yellow flame was a Dying Will Flame but a different element. It was a Sun Flame and you can see clearly that he has a complete control over it. If ever he used that flame from the very beginning, its bad news for them." Reborn explained to him.

"But Ken was trained by your friend, Colonnello right? Then why is he still not enough to defeat them!?" Ieyuji had shouted in anger. Reborn answered him, "Because he has more experience than him. Baka Yuji if you keep acting like that then you will never win."

"Tch"

Ieyuji's fist tightens. He doesn't want to lose, especially to his brother, his Soulless Brother! He looked at Reborn, who now can see a Dark Red Flame emitting from his eyes. To the Arcobaleno's well hidden surprise.

"Reborn train me, I want to defeat him. I won't let that soulless brother of mine surpass me!"

Reborn observed the flame carefully. 'That flame…'

"It was one of the most dangerous flame we had ever face Reborn. We all hated it and… we just want it gone. Because of that flame… we had lose someone precious to us, leading Tsuna to be broken because of that incident… we don't want to let that happen again."

Reborn remembered the day Yamamoto told him something about that Dark Red Flame. He seems… terrified and at the same time, angry. The flame that caused the loss of someone precious means someone died and that someone is very important to Tsuna that made him broken.

"Reborn… please, until the time we can fully act… watch over Ieyuji. If anything seems wrong around him, please tell us and we'll think of a way to help him. We can't let that flame possess him, if it did…"

"Reborn?"

Reborn was cut off from his terrain of thoughts when Ieyuji had called him.

"Were you listening Reborn?" Ieyuji asked, founding it weird for him to space out.

"I am and I am not spacing out. I'm thinking about the best training for you. You are still not done completing the other phase of your training and we need to hurry Baka Yuji." Reborn told him.

The Dark Red flame on Ieyuji's eyes disappeared and the younger twin had smiled. "Yeah!"

"…"

Reborn knew that surpassing Tsuna had been impossible as he had seen Tsuna's hyper intuition first hand and knew how capable Tsuna is as the successful Decimo from another world but he won't be telling this to Ieyuji just yet. As long as it could stop this dark red flame that Tsuna and the rest had despised so much.

On the other hand, Tsuna was already awake and already sat at his bed, with Chrome standing beside him. In front of the two was Adult Lambo who appeared thanks to the Ten year bazooka.
